Laughing From Meditation
Hi guys, I've picked up meditation again recently but I started a little more than a year ago (wish I kept up with it). Today was an interesting session for me. I was meditating and trying my best to observe my thoughts and I had this one thought / memory that happened in the past and couldn't help but smile. It kind of threw me off after when this happen, but I continued to meditate anyways.
Does this happen to anybody else and should this happen at all? I can't help my fixate on that moment.

I do laugh when I am in "meditation" sessions, but for a different reason. I usually do something more like channeling rather than meditation, so the laughs come from the conversations.

I knew a guy once who used to make himself laugh every morning as part of a spiritual discipline.....
But yours sounds like a much better idea! One of the nicest things we can do is genuinely laugh in a happy and natural way.

The last time I laughed through meditation was with an awareness of drawing breath just beneath the clavicles. Funny how the two words, clavicles and laugh, are closely related. |

Laughing is good! 
Enjoying sitting in silence is good!
Fixating, pondering, contemplating one thought or memory that brings a smile is good!
Accepting the happiness is good!
It is not what I call meditation...it is enjoying a thought or memory...
which is good!! 
That's my input.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.
